In Bath 1. In the footsteps of Jane Austen is a free audio walking tour of Bath created by Bath Tourism Plus. Jane Austen was one of Bath's most famous residents and two of her novels are mostly set in Bath, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion. This tour takes you around the highlights of the city and includes extracts from Jane Austen's novels and letters, which brilliantly describe Bath as it would have been in its Georgian heyday...we hope you enjoy it! 2. Bath and beyond offers a wide range of accommodation. Stay in a hotel or guest house located in the grand Georgian terraces or enjoy a stay in the countryside surrounding Bath where Jane herself would often enjoy walking. A visitor in the early 19th Century said "lodgings are not only very numerous, but are distinguished for the elegance, convenience and comfort which they afford visitors", and the same could be said of the accommodation in Bath today. 3. There is so much to see and do in Georgian Bath! You can 'take the waters' in the grand Pump Room where you can also enjoy refreshments while listening to the Pump Room Trio. Or 'take the waters' at the Spa Visitor Centre, and, after tasting the waters, why not bathe in them at Thermae Bath Spa, the only place in the UK where you bathe in natural thermal waters. Enjoy a one hour boat trip around the city with Bath City Boat Trips passing the house that Jane Austen lived in at Green Park. Shopping and evening entertainments were an important part of Georgian life, this is still true to life in Bath today. Bath has more - and better - shops than a city ten times its size, it is also known as a city of festivals with 37 taking place throughout the year. During the evening attend the local theatre. 4. Bath is a thriving, vibrant city with a year round calendar of festivals, theatrical, musical and sporting events. For Jane Austen fans enjoy the festival dedicated to her in September or attend a show at the theatre, something that Jane herself loved to do. The tenth Jane Austen Festival will begin with the annual colourful costumed parade through the city centre. The week long programme includes talks and productions, readings and tours, and draws Jane Austen fans from around the world. 5. The theatre that Jane Austen loved to attend opened in Orchard Street in 1750. In 1768 it was distinguished by being the first theatre outside London to be protected by a royal patent. This theatre drew superstars of the time like Sarah Siddons and today the Theatre Royal in Sawclose, dating from 1805, attracts pre-West End shows and top name performers. 6. Many of Jane Austen's novels have been made into television adaptations, this includes Northanger Abbey (1987), Persuasion (1994, 2006) and Mansfield Park (2007). The 2006 ITV version of Persuasion was filmed in 14 different Bath locations and stared Sally Hawkins as Anne Elliot and Rupert Penry-Jones as Captain Wentworth. Follow in the footsteps of Jane Austen and spot the sights which double as filming locations in many of her film and television adaptations. The Bath movie map will guide you around Bath's famous backdrops, including the Royal Crescent, the Circus and the Assembly Rooms. 7. In Jane Austen's time visitors flocked to Bath to 'take the waters' which was considered to be good for your health. This involved drinking large quantities of Bath's natural spa water - up to eight pints a day! You can still sample a glass of the Spa water at the Pump Room, which was pivotal to life in Bath in Jane Austen's time. The Pump Room is the perfect place to visit for a real taste of Georgian life. Enjoy listening to the sound of the Pump Room Trio while you take some drink and food here and admire this striking neo-classical salon.

It might be the worst house of the week – and indeed most of the people sitting near me looked stupid – but even so it was wonderful in a way to leave the darkening and chilly streets of Newcastle and then find oneself sitting in the fourth row at the Empire. I think the secret of all these music halls is that while they seemed big –and most of them were - at the same time they seemed warm, cosy, intimate. A lot has been written about the magic of the playhouse, but it has always seemed to me very pale and thin compared with the warmer and deeper magic of the music-hall. The first was a “fill-in”, a pair of trick cyclists, and of course I wasn’t interested in them. The second act on the programme were the Colmars, three male acrobats and a girl. It was one of those acts, which had always rather bored me, in which the men stood on each other’s shoulders and chucked the girl around a lot. (I saw one recently, on a TV circus programme, and it seemed just the same, unchanged in a world of bewildering transformations). Next was Harry Burrad, Eccentric Comedian, who came rushing on, with the band playing its loudest, waving his arms and hoarsely breaking at once into one of his hell-for-leather idiotic songs. His make-up and costume left the audience in no doubt that he was a funny man. But this Monday first house offered him only a few distant giggles. Perhaps like me they didn’t think him funny. Diddy-diddy-oodah-oodah-oodah, he croaked away, still waving his arms, and nobody cared. At first, he made me feel embarrassed, and then as he went on and on without any encouragement, I began to feel sorry for him. I know I felt relieved when he took himself off, with the band at its loudest again, pretending desperately that a little weary clapping was an ovation. Uncle Nick was next, the last act before the interval. The orchestra opened as usual with part of the Ballet Egyptian, and then a gong sounded. And there – a tall, commanding, sinister figure –was the Indian magician himself. There was no doubt that Uncle Nick was a superb showman. Even the stupid fat deadheads sitting all round me waiting for death rather than for any entertainment, were not entirely unimpressed. I led the rather scattered applause, but did not succeed in bringing back the magician before the curtain to take a final bow. When the lights went up for the interval I looked around me. The Monday first-house people looked just as stolid as they had done before. Their sense of wonder had not been touched and aroused, because they had none. Tommy Beamish, topping the bill, came on next. He was one of those rare comedians who began to make me laugh as soon as they appeared. He was a born comic. He never bothered with the ordinary comedian’s patter, told no funny stories, sang no comic songs. He would go on repeating some commonplace phrase or even one word, with deepening bewilderment or growing indignation, like a creature from some other world baffled by this one, until he had only to make the smallest gesture or mutter half a word to produce another roar of laughter from the nearest stalls to the high distant gallery. Even the fat deadheads all around me had to laugh, though they hated doing it. I watched the evening performance from the wings. It was queer watching it all again from the side. Luckily the atmosphere was quite different from what it had been during the first house. The audience was now large, lively, responsive. The Colmars went very well, and had to take several calls. I found Uncle Nick’s act even more impressive than at the first house, seeing it from the front. This was chiefly because of the audience. He was called back several times. As the curtain came down for the interval, Uncle Nick joined me in the wings. “Went well, didn’t it?” “Wonderful”, I told him. A15 Why was the author displeased when he came to the theatre?

British male buoyed up by beer and chipsMORE than a third of British men live on a diet of beer and fast food, a study of the national diet has shown. Women do A22___ any better, eating a “traditional British diet” high in sugars, cereals and fats and washed down with lots of tea. Only 17 per cent ate a diet close to that recommended by healthy eating groups — high in fibre and A23___ in fat. But even this group consumed above-average amounts of wine and spirits. The study was produced by a team from University College London, which used data from The Dietary and Nutritional Survey of British Adults, a report by the Department of Health and the Ministry for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food that was updated in October this year. The data was A24___ from seven-day food and drink diaries compiled by 2,000 men and women. When their diets were broken down into groups, the team found that the “beer and convenience” diet was favoured by most men. This group ate large quantities of ready-made meat products, chips and white bread and drank beer. They steered clear of A25___ choices such as wholegrain cereals, fish and low-fat dairy products. Women who ate the “traditional British diet”, which is high in refined sugars and dairy products, preferred A26___ to alcohol and ate more chips and cakes than vegetables, fruit and wholegrain cereals. The study’s findings will come A27___ a setback to the Department of Health, which has tried to promote healthy diets. It may also explain A28___ Britain has one of the highest rates of heart disease in the world. It is the UK’s biggest killer, causing more than 250,000 deaths each year.
